Movie Make-Outs Could Be Filmed By Cinematic Spy Cams
One of our most awkward childhood memories was going to see 'Muppet Treasure Island' at the AMC with mom and lil' bro. There was this couple in the back totally necking (actually, they'd probably crossed over into heavy petting, though we didn't know what that was at the time).
Not that we all haven't made out in the cinema a time or two ourselves, but puh-leaze! It's the MUPPETS.
Count on the British to put a stop to this sort of behavior -- Odeon, the UK's largest theater chain, has taken to installing security cameras inside movie theaters. So while you're sitting around watching 'The Dark Knight', someone might be watching you! It's so meta.
Odeon execs claim that the cameras are intended to ensure the safety of moviegoers, and have already cut down on "disruptive incidents." But young Brits and human rights groups are sketched out. It's Big-Brotherly, they worry, and takes all the fun out of an old fashioned makeout sesh at the movies. [Source: Telegraph UK]

Some theaters have been doing this for years to catch people with video cameras filming movies, they just haven't made public announcements.

Recently in our town a couple was arrested for having full-on sex during Kung Fu Panda. I was talking with someone I know who works at another local theatre who said if they catch anyone doing stuff like that they hit 'em with a spotlight from the projection booth.

At least it wasn't "Schindler's List", right Jerry? :)
